No Reservation


He just, he just can’t give in,
Even though he wants to he still depends,
On the comfort and familiarity of the one who’s been,
Always by his side, even at his worst moments,
Scared and confused on if he should let you in,
Wondering if he does…
 Will you hurt him, like he hurt them?
The words so sweet to a heart so guarded,
Breaking down walls that never felt emotion,
Can it be?
Is it real?
Thinking to himself he shouldn't cross without the right equipment,
Letting the emotions guide the soul,
Can be very dangerous if you lose control,
He’s holding back because she still holds…
That comfort love that keeps him calm,
That expectant love that doesn't go beyond,
That dependable love that’s as constant as time,
This is what he thinks he needs…
 For his heart to agree with his mind,
But just for a moment let’s pretend that he did,
Just for a second let unreserved love intermingle from within,
Allow himself to explore a possibility unknown,
And attain just a moment’s bliss of unrestricted love,
Yes he would feel out of control,
Yes he would stretch further than before,
Yes he might fall out just as fast as he fell in love,
But if he never tries’s he’ll always wonder what it was…

Just Thinking

Not knowing just flowing as the days spin,
People changing and you feel open,
Stuck in place, pacing as you think from within,
Surprise, surprise what the world brings,
Shaken from routine, uprooted from stagnancy,
Unaware of the effects your words play on others,
Quiet so quiet tip toeing on eggshells afraid of the outcome,
Hearing from a distance the truth of a soul’s whim,
Losing focuse and stumbling upon fragmented memories,
Wanting to feel focused chocking on words unspoken,
Hoping for new motions, to breathe the life into an open space,
Sugar coated lips speak of that which is unreal,
The light from within dimming as months turn into years,
Thinking this change is supposed to bring more happiness,
Impatience driving towards temporary blissfulness,
Is it the purpose, life, game, change,
Unsure and sure of the sacrifice you made,
Couldn’t remember, but now you do,
Aaaah, it’s all coming back now piece by piece,
Now your misplaced, exposed, with memories released,
Does it set you free?
Are you meant to be?
Live life to the fullest is what people think,
No one holds themselves responsible when they act on their true feelings.
